HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Did you know that the celebration of HALLOWEEN dates back some 2,000 years?  Here are some interesting facts about Halloween.

On Halloween, Irish peasants would beg the rich for food. For those that refused, they would play a practical joke. So, in an effort to avoid being tricked, the rich would hand out cookies, candy and fruit - a practice that morphed into 'TRICK OR TREATING" today.

Pumpkins originated in Central America.

Candy Corn has been made with the same recipe by the Jelly Belly Candy Company since around 1900. The recipe includes sugar, corn syrup and marshmallows.

What was the first wrapped candy?  Toosie Rolls
